Sad, but true. They better show up for 4 quarters that day....

You mean the pet stores?

I tried that once and was shocked at the price. This was many years ago, but seems to me that they charged almost as much for a dozen that bait shops charged for a tube.

Two cups is about the most I usually have a chance to get here at the local Wally World. I've asked the clerks to stock more, but they either don't care or they are actually selling really fast. Last...

By the way, do you know if that Lake View store is open on Sundays? Just curious if we need to hit a different store for minnows.

At Inspiration Point?

Yeah, that was us having truck trouble. I think we had it started by the time you stopped and talked to us. There were a few minutes there where we were a little worried. We...

Not a single fish. Heck, not a single bite as far as I know. WT was 85 degrees.

We didn't try for long. We fished about 1.5 hours. We trolled 4 rods total with no minnows. I used Bandits,...

I've only used it in streams or at Laurel Lake for Trout. A crawler tipped with several kernels works well in deep water at Laurel.

Nice catch.

I'm going to Douglas Sunday with a friend to break-in his new Alumacraft. We don't plan to do a lot of fishing.


If we trolled a couple hours, what would you recommend?

I have...

We used dog food and hotdogs in our traps. We get lots of big creek chubs and lots of crawfish.

I'm a little confused in regards to the crawfish. We never got a hit on them. Someone recently told...

Same here!

Fishing has crossed my mind a lot in the last three weeks, but I just haven't had the will after stepping outside and feeling the ridiculous heat/humidity in my area. Working 6-days a...

Are you guys trolling jigs with minnows, plastics, or crankbaits? What depth?

What points are you near this time of year?

These mussels are everywhere on sandbars on my local river.

Been using a minnow trap last week or so in a creek and been catching alot of crayfish. Tried these for bait without a single nibble. What gives with these? The ones we're getting in the traps are...

Spent the last two days going after cats from a sandbar on the Nolichuckey. First time I've fished for cats in many years.

Saturday was pretty good. We brought creek chubs and shiners. Using the...

Really hoping the vote this year changes this!

The little hooks with the slight bend in them makes a difference.

It was Tattersal pond on the outskirts of Corbin. It's a neighborhood pond. No idea what it's like now. You go out Falls Rd. (I think that's the name) from Corbin a few miles and take a right to go...

The only Gulp I've used recently was the fake Maggots. Used them in a creek to catch creek chubs for catfish and bass. The minnows hit them like crazy. They were very aggressive.

Never tried the...

I've tried the Trout Magnet a few times without getting any hits. That said, I did not have the Bison color that everyone recommends. I just grabbed a couple at Wal-Mart one day when I noticed them...

Where at in KY?

I've asked here before with no response, but I was born in a neighborhood near Corbin which had an amazing pond for Crappie. I've got my father's biggest Crappie ever caught on...

I've always thought of "Swimbaits" as those large Bluegill-type baits that are very heavy.

I have those BG Electric Chicken Baby Shads and Itty Bittys. Also have both in different colors. The Itty...

Thoughts and prayers with you.

My first thought would be because of bugs. I remember my dad having those big styrofoam crappie lights that floated on the surface. The bugs drove us nuts anytime we used them. I would think these...

Me? The stink, stain, and dirt from crawlers takes days to get rid of. I've never noticed any aroma from a fish stick with me after a shower. :)

I catch some Crappie with much thicker mouths than others, but to me they are the minority. Most Crappie I've caught have areas of their mouth that are very thin. Sorta depends on where they are...

I would write that off to just one of those things. It happens sometimes.

I love using 4 lb. test on my light gear. Hit a pond today looking for crappie, but ended up bass fishing instead. The...

I've caught 12" Crappie that looked like toothpicks and 9" Crappie that were twice as heavy.

Not sure I'll ever touch a crawler again for gills. I've always sworn by crickets, but there are times they can be hard to find. After using wax worms, crawlers would be a last resort for me.

I...

Tried again today. Caught 61, with maybe 6 keepers. :(

Ugly day.

I use the smallest float I can get away with for the fishing situation. I usually use tiny floats fishing from the banks. The smaller, the better.

Boat fishing just depends on distance.
